Your prayers and generous support of LOMC enable us to continue offering quality programs to
congregations and individuals. There are several ways that you can
support LOMC.
Volunteer - Throughout the year
volunteer help is needed to help the LOMC
staff maintain and expand facilities and programs.
The Annual Fund - Gifts to the Annual Fund help to offset LOMC operating
expenses. User fees account for only 70% of annual expenses. Without
your gift LOMC would not be able to offer quality programs at reasonable
prices.
The Campership Fund - Your gift to the Campership Program is a
scholarship program that allows youth with financial needs to attend
summer camp.
The Capital Fund - Your gift to the capital fund allows LOMC to
accomplish large building projects. Previous projects have included road repairs
from spring floods, a new bath house, a new dining hall roof and renovation of retreat
house bathrooms.
